False Bay Park, Nature reserve in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
False Bay Park contains diverse habitats including woodland, thornveld, open savannah, and shoreline areas along the northeastern coast of South Africa.
The park, established in 1944, preserves marine fossils from 60 million years ago when the entire region was submerged under the sea.
The reserve maintains two walking paths, Dukandlovu and Mphophomeni trails, each extending 8 kilometers through different environmental zones.
Visitors can participate in multiple activities including kayaking, turtle watching between October and February, and guided horse riding safaris.
The park hosts one of South Africa's few remaining colonies of pink-backed pelicans and contains rare sections of sand forest.
